Understanding Column and Row Spacing
You can modify the space between columns and the space between rows in columnar and tabular report sections.
In the Spacing menu option, which is available only for columnar and tabular sections, two tabs are available:
Column Spacing
Row Spacing
The Column Spacing options enable you to:
Center the report under the page header information.
Modify the spacing among all columns of the section.
Modify the spacing between individual columns.
Bring attention to the data in a specific column by adding spaces to set the column apart from the other columns.
On the Column Spacing tab, you can select all columns or indicate specific columns that you want to affect. You enter a value in the Space before selected columns field to indicate the amount of space that you want between the columns. Click Apply to view the new spacing before leaving the form to ensure that the new spacing meets your needs.
You can also change the spacing of rows to improve the appearance of a report. From the Row Spacing tab, you can modify the spacing between:
The page header and the detail section.
The rows in the detail section.
Your choices for the row spacing of a tabular or columnar section are:
Single
Single + Half
Double
In a tabular row report, you can change the space before a row. This is defined on the Options tab of the Row Properties form.
